EVAP codes and fuel cap - 2017 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 6.4 hemi

[Ryan Poulos]

I have a 2017 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with a 6.4 hemi. It has 338,000 miles. Yes, high.
Its throwing 3 codes for EVAP leaks, and I replaced the gas cap and the code still comes up after reset.
Regarding the EVAP leak, does anyone have a diagram of components to the system? What should I 100% replace?
On the gas cap that I replaced, what else should I check? I did lube the new cap rubber seal and its clicking when tight. Thank you.

I reset the codes and after starting this it came right back up with ‘Check Fuel Cap’ and the same 2 codes. P0456. P0457.

I had my gas tank and all accessories in the gas tank replaced. That was the only way that it got fixed.
Zero cost too because it's an emissions issue. That was on my 2005 GoMango Ram rcsb.

Only way your going to be able to fix the issue with out throwing parts at it is to have the evap system smoked to find the leak could be broken evap hose or it could be a purge or vent valve not closing all the way. I will not even try to diagnose a Evap system without smoking the system first and running open\close cycling test on valves.

Guess I’ll have it smoke tested.

Really quick. I reset the codes and the Evap codes did not come back up. However Gas cap is still coming up. Its a new gas cap from Oreillys. Not OEM Dodge. Could be the new (not OEM) gas cap?

I think I spent maybe $100 in total for the 5.7 version of the emissions parts. Included, gas cap, evap purge valve and leak detection pump. All simple plastic. Evap purge is on the intake manifold, leak detection is on top rear passenger side of the tank.

I used to get these alot. The fix was replacing the purge valve. 12 bucks

 

[Ryan Poulos]

So were you guys getting ‘replace fuel cap’ because of the other bad evap items?

 

[burner71]

i would get the small evap leak code and the gas cap on the dash

Do the smoke test.
I had 2 smoke tests done, nothing showed, that's why they replaced the gas tank and all parts inside. One test at the dealership, one test done at my buddy's shop.

Buy an OEM gas cap and reset, drive around for about 100 miles. If it doesn't stay off, you have a problem.
Good luck man.

I watched a bunch of youtube videos past night with my same issue. 99% fixed it with a purge valve. $16 at my local parts store. Im doing it once it stops raining. Crossing fingers.

Most likely it is the EVAP Canistor that is attached to the gas tank itself. The fittings sometimes leak and or the nipples that the lines attach to break off from the canistor. Been there and done that more than once.

So Im ending the thread here on a good note. After replacing the purge valve, resetting codes, and then driving maybe 20 miles….boom…no check engine light on, no check fuel cap on…..problem fixed. Thanks for everyone on helping a brother out!!!
